One could also discover that "virus and ill spirits" are another part of God's image and creation. They have purpose and meaning just as the "good" parts of Creation do. Can God violate Him/Herself?
Daisy- I presume you mean that you don't like the passage...perhaps it's because of how often Man has taken "having dominion" to mean destroy and conquer?
